I just purchased a Pioneer CLD 900,  you know,  the one that plays
laser video disks AND compact disks (is it "discs"?). 

Well,  I played about 5 movies on it which were all "Extended Play" (CLV)
disks and all 5 of them looked terrible!  There was actually static in
the picture.  It also didn't seem to have the awesome resolution I've heard
about. So much for the "state of the art video" format!

I have the machine directly hooked up to a monitor using gold cable connections.

Is there something wrong with my machine or are all extended play disks
this terrible?  

Anyone out there have any experience with this?
